    Description:
    Vaca Muerta is a mesosiderite meteorite, which are stony-iron space rocks that are a half and half mixture of nickel-iron and rock. Vaca Muerta is Spanish for "dead cow." The meteorite was named for a nearby dry riverbed in the Atacama Desert of Chile. It was first discovered in 1861, but the location was lost for nearly 100 years. There was a lot of Vaca Muerta meteorite that has been recovered over the decades, but little can now be found at the site now. Vaca Muerta is one of the most stable and trouble free of the mesosiderites.
